While a Group of Five team won’t replicate Cincinnati’s success last season, the Houston Cougars have the potential to be close to the top 10. Losing Alton McCaskill to injury might prove too much of a blow to overcome. However, in Nathaniel Dell and Clayton Tune, the Cougars have an explosive QB-WR duo. They may have lost some defensive pieces, but Derek Parish and Chidozie Nwankwo can be a dominant duo up front in the AAC.
